John Gosden won this with a newcomer last year but Spanish Aria is more experienced and returned a losing favourite at Nottingham last time. A line through the runner-up gives her something to find with ALEMAGNA, who is taken to improve for a recent debut fourth at the same track and open her account. The Haggas yard run a couple of newcomers in Shrewdness and Wannie Mae with the latter related to four winners while King Power is a half-sister to Oaks winner Talent among others. Royal Star can include a Listed winner among her winning relatives with Nausha and Thermal others to note.
